I had a pleasant stay at the hotel, thanks to its spacious and modern rooms and the convenience of the pool area. The staff was accommodating and created a welcoming atmosphere, although the dining options for breakfast were a bit lacking. The price was fair, but I wish the Wi-Fi had been included in the rate, as it felt a bit excessive having to pay for it separately.
